Yield : Single serving

Ingredients

  • 1/2 Cup chilled plain natural yogurt / curd
  • 2 Tablespoon milk chocolate chunks / dark chocolate chunks
  • 1 Tablespoon Fresh Cream ( I used low fat amul fresh cream with 25 % fat content)
  • 1 Tablespoon Nutella spread
  • 4 roasted Almonds
  • a pinch of salt
  • a pinch of cardamom powder ( optional. I like my lassi with a hint of cardamom. You can skip adding cardamom)
  • Sugar as per your taste ( I did not add any sugar at all. Sweetness from nutella and milk chocolate was good enough for me; How ever you can add sugar according to your taste)

Directions

1. In a microwave safe bowl, mix together chocolate chunks and fresh cream. Microwave on high in the intervals of 30 seconds and stir until the chocolate melts completely. Let the melted chocolate cool completely
2. Add chilled yogurt in a blender. Add melted chocolate, nutella, almonds, salt , cardamom powder and blend everything together until the drink is fluffy and the chocolate is mixed well with the yogurt. You can also add few ice cubes while blending. My yogurt was super chill , hence I didn't add ice cubes
3. Add sugar if required
4. Serve once topped off with finely shredded chocolate
